Punk's Not Dead


Every lamp post in central London is decorated with Union Jack bunting, every shop window filled with cheap patriotic tat, every magazine with the best royal buys - biscuit tin with a corgi on the lid, anyone? And I can feel my inner punk stirring. By the time it gets to Jubilee Weekend, I'll be playing Anarchy in the UK on repeat, snarling like John Lydon and wearing a pair of these fabulous pumps from Pretty Ballerinas. Just hope there's another pair out there with 'The Bollocks' on the toes.

  6. Wouldn't it be great if there was a new punk - not a recycled, retro-version that's sold back to us as part of the Jubilee. Even Johnnie Lydon has sold out to great british butter. I wonder what will happen to bunting, cupcakes and the union jack come September 2012?
